Roger,

I'd be very interested in knowing more about what you have. Having servo
motors sounds great and I, too, am looking at controling my system with
gecko drives.

Regarding mills. The mill I'm looking for needs to be bigger than a
sherline or taig as so are my projects. The Grizzly mini-mill is the
smallest I'm willing to invest in right now.

689

I'd like to see photos of what you have and their matching prices. But, you
might have to email them to me directly.

I tried to access the photo section of this group, but only get as far as a
user group login requiring yahoo ID and password. Can anyone help me out
with what my ID and password is to view group photos?

Thanks for all you help!

Scott
